A tribute to my favorite Mech anime cartoon from the past .....

Rating: 9/10 (14 July 2013)

9.4 will be my score. Its hard to describe how much I was waiting for a movie like this. Probably more than 30 years when I first sat down and watched Mazinger Z on my TV. Loved it! The plot is predictable because of course it has the typical characters from an anime series. But still a great and fun ride. The Special Effects are spectacular and the Robots vs. Monsters fight are great. We have three big fights, one at the beginning, one at the middle and at the end leaving some room for some human drama and some silly sci-fi stuff. The acting was good but I felt the main actor of the movie could be a little more or show a little more charisma. Was so-so in times but besides that it was a blast!
